[…] The accuracy(of these opinion polls) is often questioned, but the answer to these is dependent on a series of factors. The sample size is often the main criterion which gives us an idea about the accuracy of each opinion poll. A survey which takes into account the opinion of 10,000 people about their choice of party between AAP, BJP, Congress and others is surely a better and a more accurate indicator than a survey that just surveys 1,000 people. Yet, sample size is not the only indicator of accuracy of opinion polls. For the Delhi Assembly Elections too, the accuracy of these polls is a tricky business. Nevertheless, these opinion polls are probably the only data we have in order to get a fair share about the mood of the Delhi Voters for the Assembly Elections 2015. […]
